Time 27m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup solid shortening, at room temperature
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup creamy peanut butter

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, set aside.
  • Cream the butter, shortening, and both sugars in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the peanut butter.
  • Add the flour mixture by the cupful and beat at low speed to mix well.
  • Shape the dough into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased baking sheets (I line the sheets with parchment paper) about 2 inches apart.
  • Press each cookie twice in each direction with a lightly floured fork to make a crosshatch design.
  • Bake 10-12 minutes.
  • ***Do not overbake--they will still be a bit pale, but if you overbake, they won't be chewy on the inside.
  • ***Use a spatula to transfer to a rack to cool.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Peanut Butter Cookies image

No mixer is required to make these craggy rounds that deliver all the comfort of eating a spoonful of peanut butter straight out of the jar - but with the creamy-candy richness of peanut butter chips in each bite. (If you're a crunchy peanut butter person, you can throw in whole salted nuts, too.) Because of their low proportion of flour, these little disks develop fudgy centers inside lightly crisp edges. There are countless varieties of peanut butter in markets and all yield different cookie results. These use natural peanut butter, which is just peanuts blended with salt, so they taste especially peanutty.

Time 45m

Yield About 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup/65 grams all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup/113 grams unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup/108 grams granulated sugar
1/2 packed cup/93 grams brown sugar
1 cup/263 grams natural salted peanut butter (see Tip), at room temperature
1 large egg
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup/165 grams peanut butter chips
1/2 cup/74 grams lightly salted roasted peanuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. In a large bowl, using a wooden spoon or spatula, smash and mix butter and both sugars together until smooth and creamy. Add peanut butter and stir until incorporated. Add egg and vanilla, and stir until well combined. Add flour all at once and fold gently until dry bits disappear, then fold in the peanut butter chips and peanuts, if using, until evenly dispersed.
  • Using a small cookie scoop or a measuring tablespoon, drop rounds of dough on a prepared sheet, spacing 1½ inches apart. Bake until just dry on top and set along the edges, 10 to 11 minutes. Do not overbake. Scoop and drop dough onto the second sheet while the first bakes, then slide into the oven when the first comes out.
  • Place the baking sheets on racks to cool completely. The cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Tips:

  • For a crunchy cookie, press extra chopped peanuts onto the dough balls before baking.
  • If you don't have a stand mixer, you can cream the butter and sugar together with a handheld mixer or a wooden spoon.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
  • Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the cookies hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These whole jar of peanut butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their soft and chewy texture and rich peanut butter flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a simple and satisfying cookie recipe, give these whole jar of peanut butter cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
